Abstract

In this paper, we find the speed and energy required to increase the length of Summer vacation from 77 to 104 days from an observers point of view. It would require 1.87 × 10⁴¹ J with Earth reaching 67% the speed of light, which we calculate would take 30.9 Myr to absorb from the sun. We also find that the tension felt by a rope holding the Earth at it’s normal orbit radius to be 2.17 × 10³⁰ N.
